Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholders,
Over the period covered by this Annual Report--October 1, 1994 through September
30, 1995--the benefit of staying committed to your investments became evident.
The fiscal period began in late 1994, one of the worst years in history for the
bond market and a challenging year for the stock market. Those of you who
maintained a long-term investment perspective and remained patient should be
pleased. The stock and bond markets have performed exceptionally well since the
beginning of 1995. In this environment, the AARP income and growth-oriented
Funds provided solid returns while continuing to follow their conservative
investment strategies. Descriptions elaborating on the performance of the AARP
Funds begin on page 12.
We would first like to spend a few paragraphs discussing the stock and bond
markets and then review some matters specific to the AARP Investment Program. We
have also added a Special Section to the Report this year that provides you with
some tools with which to evaluate your mutual fund investments--specifically how
to assess the risk of share price volatility. The section begins on page 7 with
a brief discussion of mutual fund risk, followed by questions that you might ask
a mutual fund company when considering a particular fund. A detailed grid then
provides the answers to those questions as they relate to the AARP Funds. We
hope this will allow you to compare the AARP Funds to one another and to other
funds you may want to consider for your investment portfolio.
The Stock and Bond Markets
As economic growth slowed in the beginning of 1995, concerns about inflation
abated and expectations that the Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) would lower
interest rates heightened. As a result, short- and long-term interest rates
began to decline. On July 6, 1995, the Fed cut the Federal Funds rate (the rate
banks charge each other for overnight loans) by .25% to 5.75%. In making this
cut, the first in nearly three years, the Fed cited waning inflationary
pressures, with inflation hovering at less than 3%. The economy overall showed
strong corporate profits, low inflation, and declining interest rates.
This good news for the stock market propelled it to new heights. The unmanaged
Dow Jones Industrial Average--the price-weighted average of 30 actively traded
blue chip stocks--hit one record after another, ending September 1995 at 4789, a
2
<PAGE>
number that only a few years ago would have seemed impossible. The unmanaged
Standard and Poor's 500 Stock Price Index returned 29.75% from October 1, 1994
to September 30, 1995.
The bond market also posted significant gains in this environment because as
interest rates decline, bond prices rise. Long-term interest rates, as measured
by the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond, declined from 7.81% on September 30, 1994 to
6.57% on September 30, 1995. Short-term interest rates, as measured by the
three-month Treasury bill, declined to 5.40% on September 30, 1995 from a high
of 5.93% in February of this year.
Looking Ahead
Our outlook for the bond market remains positive due to our expectations that
inflation should remain stable for the next year or so, and that interest rates
should also remain stable or slightly decline.
Our outlook for the stock market also remains positive. Stocks generally perform
well in an environment of low interest rates and low inflation. However, while
earnings growth continues, we may be nearing the end of the current business
cycle. (A business cycle is a pattern of fluctuating economic output and
growth.) Historically, the latter part of the cycle can be characterized as very
uncertain for stock investors. As the slowdown in economic activity becomes more
pronounced, corporate earnings and stock prices sometimes suffer. While this may
cause some short-term volatility, we continue to believe that stocks will
outperform bonds and cash equivalents over the longer term.
What This Means for Investors
We believe investors need to continue to focus on their long-term investment
goals rather than on short-term uncertainties in the markets. If you have an
investment time horizon of three years or more and can accept that both the bond
and stock markets will have volatility, short-term downturns in the market
should have no impact on your primary investment goal. In fact, these downturns
could provide investment opportunities. However, it is also important to put the
recent strong performance of the markets into perspective and not expect these
unusually high returns to continue indefinitely. Remember that diversification,
or allocating your assets in a mix of different investments such as stocks,
bonds, and money market investments, can be a sensible strategy to provide you
with a degree of protection from market volatility.
The AARP Investment Program from Scudder
As we have mentioned often over this past year, 1995 marks the 10th anniversary
of the AARP Investment Program. Over the past ten years we have learned more and
more about the needs of our shareholders. Recognizing these needs, all of the
AARP Mutual Funds are managed conservatively as the portfolio management teams
3
<PAGE>
try to moderate the share price volatility of your investment. This makes the
AARP Funds distinct from many other mutual funds which may seek long-term higher
returns, but do not focus on reducing short-term share price fluctuation. At the
same time, the AARP Funds will provide the opportunity for competitive returns.
Of course, while the AARP Funds are conservatively managed, it is important that
you realize that your principal is never insured or guaranteed, and the value of
your investment and your return will move up and down as market conditions
change.
It is this commitment to conservative investing that has continued to appeal to
AARP members. As of September 30, 1995, there were more than 670,000 investors
participating in the Program and nearly $12 billion in assets under management.
With each new shareholder comes different needs. That is why the Program prides
itself on the introduction of new services and features that will help you meet
those needs. In addition to those outlined on the back of this Report, we are
pleased to note the following services and enhancements.
Enhanced Easy-Access Line
Since its initial introduction in 1990, we have continued to improve the
Easy-Access Line as the needs of our shareholders have changed. Based upon the
most recent input from you, we have enhanced the service. Originally scheduled
for an October 5th implementation, the new service was instead made available on
October 26th. If you attempted to use the service but could not access it, we
encourage you to try again by calling toll-free 1-800-631-4636. It is now easier
to use and more informative than ever before.
For detailed information on the enhanced Easy-Access Line, please refer to the
October issue of Financial Focus, or call us toll-free at 1-800-253-2277.
New Funds Centers
We were happy to announce that AARP shareholders can now be assisted in
Scudder's Funds Centers in San Francisco and New York. As with Funds Centers in
Boston, Boca Raton, San Diego, and Scottsdale, you can obtain face-to-face
assistance from knowledgeable Mutual Fund Representatives who are specially
trained to understand the investment objectives of AARP members. So if you live
in these areas and need help in allocating your assets, have questions about
planning for retirement, or want to learn more about the AARP Mutual Funds, stop
in and see us. For directions, please call us at 1-800-253-2277.

In Closing
In addition to reading the Special Section about risk that follows, we encourage
you to read the individual Fund Reports. Since the AARP Investment Program has
now been in existence for ten years, you will see ten-year performance data for
most of the Funds included for the first time in our Annual Report. We encourage
you to give significant attention to these long-term returns because they
provide perspective on how each of the AARP Mutual Funds has performed through
different types of markets.
If you have questions about your Funds or the information provided in this
Report, please call our knowledgeable AARP Mutual Fund Representatives between
the hours of 8:00 A.M. to 8:00 P.M. Monday through Friday, eastern time at

Understanding the Volatility of Your Mutual Funds
As shareholders, many of you received the November 1995 issue of Financial
Focus, the Program's monthly newsletter. In it, we presented information about
how to assess some of the risks associated with your mutual funds. Because of
its importance, we have repeated much of the information in this Special
Section. In addition, we have provided you with statistics about the AARP Income
and AARP Growth Funds so you can begin to understand how to evaluate such
measurements as standard deviation and duration. We hope to continue to provide
you with similar information on a periodic basis. As you read through this
section, please remember that our AARP Mutual Fund representatives are able to
help you with many of your questions. Please call toll-free 1-800-253-2277.
Defining Risk
Currently, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is determining if it is
possible to define a universal method of measuring the risks of a particular
fund. Having risk benchmarks to accompany performance benchmarks would greatly
enhance an investor's ability to evaluate a mutual fund. Until then, however,
determining a fund's risk requires some homework. But what do we mean by risk?
Risk, as you know, is a multifaceted concept that means different things to
different people. What may seem risky to you may be conservative to someone
else. That is, in fact, why it is so difficult to create a risk benchmark that
is appropriate for every type of mutual fund.
We can define risk broadly as the possibility that you will lose part of your
investment. At one end of the risk spectrum are money funds, which pose little
risk to your principal (though they do pose risk to your purchasing power if
your investment does not increase in value to ward off inflation and taxes). At
the other end are growth funds, which are characterized as having a high degree
of risk because their value can decline notably over the short term. Related to
this is the fundamental relationship between risk and return. Generally, if you
choose a less risky investment, you must expect a lower return. Conversely, if
you expect potentially higher returns, there is usually more short-term risk
involved.
What is Your Tolerance for Risk?
Ultimately, evaluating the risk of an investment involves understanding your own
tolerance for risk as well as your investment time horizon. If you have a short
investment time horizon, you would be concerned about whether the income you
receive will keep up with taxes and inflation. If you have a long investment
7
<PAGE>
time horizon, you need to think about how far down an investment value could
go--and how long it could stay down--before you start feeling very
uncomfortable.
While you think about this, remember that no real loss or gain is realized until
you sell your investment. That is why time is such an important factor. A way
for you to help manage risk is to commit for the long term and understand the
importance of diversifying your investments among several types of mutual funds
and dollar cost averaging, or investing a fixed amount of money at regular
intervals.
Managing the Risk of Share Price Volatility
Because there are so many types of investment risk, and because there are no
universal methods of measurement, it may be helpful to focus on a risk over
which portfolio managers of a mutual fund can exert some control--share price
volatility. A year and a half ago we at the AARP Investment Program looked at
the question of volatility and started to better define our volatility
objectives and refine the investment strategies of three Funds: The AARP High
Quality Bond Fund, the AARP Insured Tax Free General Bond Fund, and the AARP
Capital Growth Fund. Today, all the Funds are managed to moderate the risk of
share price volatility, or the frequency and magnitude of declines in each
Fund's net asset value. The tradeoff will be returns that while competitive, may
not offer returns of similar funds that are not managed to reduce share price
volatility.
The following questions may help you determine the potential volatility of a
mutual fund.
Is the Fund Managed to Moderate Volatility?
A stock fund is managed to moderate volatility if it has a more diversified
portfolio, which usually lowers the risk to the fund because the poor
performance of a few securities will be cushioned by the positive performance of
the majority. Therefore, a stock fund that is highly concentrated in one
particular sector poses more risk than one that is diversified among many
different sectors of the market. For a bond fund, moderating volatility relates
to the degree of interest rate exposure. (Please refer to the next page for the
section on duration.)
What is the Fund's Standard Deviation?
Standard deviation measures how much a fund's return fluctuates from month to
month. Funds with high standard deviations have generally performed more
erratically in the past. However, consistency can be misleading because a fund
that declines steadily month after month may have a low standard deviation.
Therefore, when you look at a fund's standard deviation, also look at its
performance to determine whether the returns the fund produced were acceptable
to you given its volatility. Be aware too that standard deviation does not
reflect market performance, nor does it predict future performance.
8
<PAGE>
As you look at the grid on pages 10 and 11, you will note that we have quoted
three-year standard deviations for the AARP Income and AARP Growth Funds, which
provide a more complete picture than one-year figures. We have also provided
three-year average annualized returns as well. As you review these figures,
please remember that the refined investment strategies of the AARP Funds
mentioned previously might decrease the Funds' standard deviations in the
future.
What is the Fund's Duration?
Duration indicates a bond fund's sensitivity to changes in interest rates. It
measures how a bond fund may react to a one percentage point change in interest
rates. For example, if a bond fund has a duration of four years, it should lose
about 4% of its value if interest rates rise by one percentage point and gain
approximately 4% if rates decline by one percentage point. Since duration
changes as interest rates change, you should check your fund's duration
periodically, remembering that the lower the duration the less volatility the
fund endures. Duration is a more accurate measure of interest rate risk than
average maturity because it takes into account interest payments as well as
amount paid at maturity.
Does the Fund Use Derivatives?
Derivatives are securities whose value is derived from or based on an underlying
security, asset, or index. They are subject to the same fundamental relationship
between risk and potential return as are all investments. The higher the risk of
a derivative, the greater its potential return. When used by a mutual fund,
derivatives can reduce or increase risk in the same way that any security in the
portfolio can. Derivatives are often used to help manage risk and to protect
against the potential of large losses, or to increase your potential returns.
Investment professionals can use one of a variety of techniques to hedge (that
is, to offset investment risk) utilizing such derivatives as options, futures,
and forwards. If a fund uses derivatives, find out if they are used for
defensive purposes (which may not add significant risk to a portfolio, and may
in fact reduce risk), or to increase return (which often adds significantly
greater risk to the fund).
Assessing the Volatility of the AARP Mutual Funds
The following grid summarizes how the AARP Mutual Funds (with the exception of
the AARP money funds) are managed to reduce share price volatility, and gives
standard deviation, duration, credit quality, and derivative information. Though
the grid does not compare the AARP Funds to other funds or benchmarks, it does
allow you to compare the AARP Funds to each other. If you would like to discuss
any of this information with our AARP Mutual Fund Representatives, please call
toll-free at 1-800-253-2277.

AARP Fund Reports
The following pages contain a summary of each Fund in the AARP Investment
Program from Scudder. Each AARP Mutual Fund report contains the one-year total
return, five-year total return, and ten-year total return or Life of Fund total
return. Because a one-year total return could be high or low depending on market
conditions over a 12-month period, it is useful to have the perspective of the
five-year and ten-year total return figures. Within each Fund description
(except for the AARP money funds), one-year total return is broken down into two
components: distribution of income and capital change. Distribution of income is
defined as reinvested dividends. Capital change is defined as the change in the
price per share including any reinvested capital gains distributions.
You will also note that all of the AARP Funds, except the AARP money funds, have
been compared to market indices. We are providing these comparisons to comply
with the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) disclosure requirements.
Under these requirements, all mutual funds (except money funds) are required to
compare their performance over the past ten years (or Life of Fund) to that of a
broad-based securities market index. It is important to note, however, that
these indices have limited relevance to the performance of mutual funds. They do
not reflect the deduction of any servicing, investment management, or
administration expenses.
Also, the AARP Mutual Funds are unique in the high quality of their investment
portfolios and the emphasis on seeking to reduce share price fluctuation. This,
in turn, can have significant impact on performance. Therefore, when comparing
an AARP Mutual Fund's performance with that of a major market index, remember
that any comparison may be of limited value.

AARP High Quality Money Fund
At a Glance
Fund Overview
This Fund is designed to preserve your principal while you earn money market
returns. The AARP High Quality Money Fund has quality standards high enough to
have secured a AAAm rating from Standard & Poor's*, a leading national
independent rating firm. The Fund seeks to maintain a $1.00 share price,
although there may be circumstances under which this goal cannot be achieved. It
is important to note that unlike bank savings accounts, the Fund is not insured
or guaranteed by the U.S. Government and the yield of the Fund will fluctuate.
* The rating for the Fund is historical and is based on an analysis of the
portfolio's credit quality, market price exposure, and management.
For Whom the Fund is Designed
This Fund may be appropriate for investors who have short-term needs or who do
not want the risk of investing in stocks or bonds. These investors include those
seeking money market income to help meet regular day-to-day needs, those who
need immediate access to their assets through free checkwriting, those who want
to diversify their assets with an investment designed to provide a degree of
safety and stability, and those seeking a short-term investment prior to making
longer-term investment choices.
Q How has the Fund performed?
A As with all money funds, the performance of the AARP High Quality Money
Fund mirrored what happened to short-term interest rates. Short-term
interest rates, as measured by the three-month U.S. Treasury Bill, declined
over recent months. By September 30, 1995, short-term interest rates
declined to 5.40% from as high as 5.93% earlier this year. While this trend
has caused a gradual decline in the Fund's yield since February, the Fund's
7-day net annualized yield of 4.97% as of September 30, 1995 was still
higher than its 3.94% yield on September 30, 1994. The Fund has been able
to maintain a competitive yield by lengthening its average maturity (see
investment strategy on the next page).
The Fund's one-year total return was 4.99%, which was made up entirely of
income. The five-year cumulative total return was 21.95%; the five-year
average annualized total return was 4.05%; the 10-year cumulative total
return was 69.05%; and the 10-year average annualized total return was
5.39%. Of course past performance is not a guarantee of future results, and
yield will fluctuate.
13
<PAGE>
Q What has been the Fund's investment strategy?
A In the latter part of 1994 and into the first several months of 1995, we
maintained a short average maturity to take advantage of rising interest
rates. The Fund's average maturity was as short as 21 days back in February
when short-term interest rates peaked at 5.93%. As short-term interest
rates began to decline, the portfolio management team purchased securities
with longer maturities. By gradually lengthening the average maturity of
the Fund to approximately 55 days as of September 30, 1995, we were able to
provide shareholders with a higher yield.
We also decreased our investment in floating rate notes from 57% to 34%
over this period. Floating rate instruments "float" with the market as
interest rates rise or fall. Therefore, in a declining interest rate
environment, we decreased our exposure to such securities.
Q What can I expect from the Fund in the upcoming year?
A The Fund should remain a good alternative for your short-term assets or if
you are seeking stability of principal. However, we expect short-term
interest rates to remain relatively stable or decline slightly over the
next few months and into 1996. Consequently, the yield of the AARP High
Quality Money Fund may decline slightly as well.

AARP High Quality Tax Free Money Fund
At a Glance
Fund Overview
The AARP High Quality Tax Free Money Fund is designed to offer you stability of
principal, along with income free from federal taxes.1 The quality of the Fund
is high enough to have secured a AAAm rating from Standard & Poor's (S&P).2 The
AARP High Quality Tax Free Money Fund is designed to maintain a $1.00 share
price, although there may be circumstances under which this goal cannot be
achieved. It is important to note that, unlike bank savings accounts, the Fund
is not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, and yield will fluctuate.
1 It is the policy of the Fund not to invest in taxable issues. However, the
Fund's income may be subject to state and local taxes. Capital gains may be
subject to taxes as well.
2 The rating for the Fund is historical and is based on an analysis of the
portfolio's credit quality, market price exposure, and management.
For Whom the Fund is Designed
This Fund may be appropriate for investors seeking tax-free income or who do not
want the risk of investing in stocks or bonds. These investors include those
seeking money market income to meet regular day-to-day expenses, those needing
immediate access to their assets through free checkwriting, those creating a
diversified portfolio who want a portion of their assets in a conservative
investment designed to offer stability, and those seeking a short-term
investment prior to making longer-term investment choices.
Q How has the Fund performed?
A Over the past 12 months, the AARP High Quality Tax Free Money Fund provided
shareholders with modest returns and a rising yield. The Fund's 7-day net
annualized yield as of September 30, 1995 was 3.37% (which is a tax
equivalent yield of 5.58% for shareholders in the 39.6% tax bracket). This
was up from its 2.64% yield on September 30, 1994. The Fund's one-year
total return was 2.99%, which was made up entirely of income. The five-year
cumulative total return was 15.91%; the five-year average annualized total
return was 3.00%, the 10-year cumulative total return was 52.03%; and the
10-year average annualized total return was 4.28%.
Please note that the five- and ten-year figures include the performance of
the AARP Insured Tax Free Short Term Fund, which changed its name and
objective to the AARP High Quality Tax Free Money Fund on August 1, 1991.
Of course, past performance is not a guarantee of future results and yield
will fluctuate.
15
<PAGE>
Q What has been the Fund's investment strategy?
A Over the past 12 months, we lengthened the average maturity of the Fund to
approximately 55 days as of September 30, 1995. We decreased our holdings
of securities with maturities of three to six months, and increased our
investment in securities with maturities of six to 12 months. The longer
average maturity provided shareholders with higher yields as short-term
interest rates declined. We will not move longer than 55 days because the
average maturity of the Fund cannot exceed 60 days if we are to maintain
the S&P's AAAm rating. This is the highest rating S&P issues a Fund of this
type.
As always, all securities we bought over the past six months are rated
within the two highest quality ratings of at least one of the three leading
national independent rating firms: Fitch Investors Service Inc., Moody's
Investors Service Inc., or S&P. For those funds rated by S&P, there are
particular guidelines with which each fund must comply in order to maintain
its AAAm rating. In addition, within the universe of securities that fit
within the S&P criteria, Scudder credit analysts approve only a small
percentage of that universe. Therefore, the number of securities that we
have to choose from is much smaller and in most cases of better quality
than other tax-free money funds.
Q What can I expect from the Fund in the upcoming year?
A We believe the Fund should continue to provide investors in high tax
brackets with an alternative for their short-term investment needs.
However, we expect short-term interest rates to remain stable or decrease
slightly. The short-term municipal market should follow that trend.
Consequently, the yield of the AARP High Quality Tax Free Money Fund may
decline slightly.

AARP GNMA and U.S. Treasury Fund
At a Glance
Fund Overview
The AARP GNMA and U.S. Treasury Fund seeks to produce monthly income from a
conservatively managed high-quality portfolio. Although your principal is not
guaranteed as it is with an insured fixed-rate Certificate of Deposit (CD) or
savings account, the Fund is managed to help reduce share price fluctuation.
While the securities in the Fund are guaranteed as to the timely payment of
principal and interest, the guarantee is not related to the Fund's yield or
share price, both of which will fluctuate daily.
For Whom the Fund is Designed
The Fund is designed for conservative investors who want relatively high current
income and who seek a degree of protection from day-to-day share price
volatility. Investors should be seeking to invest for the longer term (at least
one to three years) and be comfortable with fluctuation in the value of their
principal and yield.

Q How has the Fund performed?
A We believe the AARP GNMA and U.S. Treasury Fund performed well. The Fund's
share price on September 30, 1994 was $14.73; it increased to $15.19 on
September 30, 1995. Because of the Fund's conservative investment
philosophy (see investment strategy below), it usually outperforms similar
funds in a down bond market (when interest rates are rising) and
underperforms when the bond market rallies as it did over the past several
months. Therefore, the Fund's one-year total return of 10.31% (representing
7.19% in distributions of income and 3.12% in capital change)
underperformed the unmanaged Lehman Brothers Mortgage GNMA Index total
return of 14.07%. It is also important to note that an index return does
not reflect investment in cash or the deduction of any servicing,
investment management, or administration expenses as a mutual fund does.
The Fund's yield continued to provide higher yields than insured fixed-rate
12-month CDs. According to Banxquote, a weekly financial rate reporter, the
nationally averaged yield on the 12-month CD as of September 30, 1995 was
5.23% -- significantly lower than the 6.59% yield on the AARP GNMA and U.S.
Treasury Fund. (Keep in mind that yield does not take into consideration
the share price fluctuation of the Fund. Unlike the share price of the
Fund, the principal value of a CD remains constant. Past performance is not
a guarantee of future results.)
Q What has been the Fund's investment strategy?
A In order to provide more income to shareholders, we shifted assets from
shorter-term instruments into GNMA securities, which were selling at
attractive price levels. As of September 30, 1995, 77% of the portfolio was
invested in GNMA securities. We have emphasized lower-rate mortgages
because they provide a combination of high income with some protection from
prepayments (paying off a mortgage before it comes due). As of the end of
September, almost a third of total assets were in 7% to 7.50% coupon
mortgages.
The remainder of the portfolio (approximately 23%) was in short-term U.S.
Treasury obligations and cash equivalents with maturities of two years or
less. As you know, it has been an ongoing strategy to keep some of the
Fund's assets in shorter maturity bonds to help dampen share price
volatility.
Q What should I expect from the Fund in the upcoming year?
A We believe the Fund will continue to be a sound choice for conservative
investors, offering higher current income than many other comparable
alternatives, with a certain degree of protection from market volatility,
particularly compared to longer-term alternatives. As stated in the Letter
to Shareholders, we expect both short- and long-term interest rates to
remain relatively stable over the next year or perhaps decline a bit.
Combined with an attractive mortgage market, this should continue to
provide the high current income shareholders have come to expect.

AARP High Quality Bond Fund
At a Glance
Fund Overview
The AARP High Quality Bond Fund offers you monthly income and the opportunity
for higher returns than you can expect from the AARP GNMA and U.S. Treasury
Fund. In pursuing higher returns, fluctuation in the value of your principal may
also be greater. The Fund has quality standards that are among the highest of
any general bond fund currently available, with at least 65% of the portfolio
invested in AAA-rated and AA-rated issues, and the other 35% in nothing less
than A-rated bonds.
For Whom the Fund is Designed
The Fund is designed for investors who want competitive returns from a portfolio
of high credit quality. Investors should be seeking to invest for the longer
term (at least one to three years) and be comfortable with fluctuation in the
value of their principal and yield. The AARP High Quality Bond Fund has the
potential to offer shareholders a greater total return than the AARP GNMA and
U.S. Treasury Fund. It will also be subject to greater price fluctuation.

Q How has the Fund performed?
A We believe the AARP High Quality Bond Fund performed well over the past 12
months as long-term interest rates declined. Long-term interest rates, as
measured by the 30-year U.S. Treasury Bond, declined from 7.81% on
September 30, 1994 to 6.57% on September 30, 1995. As a result, the value
of the securities held by the Fund increased. The Fund's share price
increased from $15.05 to $16.01 over this period. The Fund's one-year total
return was 12.98%, with 6.60% representing distributions of income and
6.38% capital change. Its one-year total return underperformed the
unmanaged Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index return of 14.06%. The Fund's
underperformance was due to its conservative investment strategy designed
to moderate share price fluctuation. It is also important to note that an
index return does not reflect investment in cash or the deduction of any
servicing, investment management, or administration expenses, as a mutual
fund does.
Q What has been the Fund's investment strategy?
A In the last quarter of 1994, the Fund focused on bonds at the shorter and
longer ends of the maturity spectrum. This strategy was designed to provide
a sound mix of competitive yields and limited price fluctuation in an
environment of unstable but generally rising interest rates. Since the
beginning of 1995, however, our strategy began to shift toward
intermediate-term bonds. This revised strategy is in keeping with our
outlook for a steeper yield curve, which is when short-term yields decline
faster than long-term yields. Intermediate-term bonds usually perform well
in this environment.
We also increased the Fund's investment in mortgage-backed securities to
42% of the portfolio to boost the Fund's total return. As previously
discussed on page 18, we believe that lower-rate mortgage-backed securities
offer an attractive combination of high income and good quality at current
market levels. A majority of the mortgage securities we held in the
portfolio had coupons ranging from 7% to 7.50%. We also increased the
Fund's investment in corporate bonds to 23% of the portfolio. The corporate
sector included issues from some of the country's leading consumer staples,
durable goods manufacturing, financial, and transportation companies.
As of September 30, 1995, 66% of the portfolio was invested in government,
AAA-rated or AA-rated securities; 23% of the Fund was invested in A-rated
bonds; and 11% was in cash equivalents.
Q What should I expect from the Fund in the upcoming year?
A As stated in the Letter to Shareholders, we expect both short- and
long-term interest rates to remain relatively stable over the next year or
perhaps decline a bit. We believe that the AARP High Quality Bond Fund is
positioned for possible lower interest rates with increased exposure to
intermediate-term issues. This Fund should continue to provide shareholders
with high income and less share price fluctuation than a long-term bond.

AARP Insured Tax Free General Bond Fund
At a Glance
Fund Overview
The AARP Insured Tax Free General Bond Fund seeks to pay high monthly income
that is free from federal taxes.* The Fund invests in a portfolio consisting
primarily of high-grade municipal securities that are insured against default.
This insurance does not apply to the value of your shares or the yield of the
Fund, both of which will fluctuate daily. The Fund also aims to keep the value
of its shares more stable than that of a long-term municipal bond.
* It is the policy of the Fund not to invest in taxable issues. However, the
Fund's income may be subject to state and local taxes. Gains on sales of
Fund shares and distributions of capital gains generally will be subject to
federal, state and local taxes.
For Whom the Fund is Designed
The Fund is designed for investors in higher tax brackets who want income that
is free from federal income taxes. Investors should be seeking to invest for the
longer term (at least one to three years) and be comfortable with fluctuation in
the value of their principal and yield.

Q How has the Fund performed?
A We believe the AARP Insured Tax Free General Bond Fund performed well over
the past 12 months as long-term interest rates declined. Long-term interest
rates, as measured by the 30-year U.S. Treasury Bond, declined from 7.81%
on September 30, 1994 to 6.57% on September 30, 1995. As a result, the
value of the securities held by the Fund increased. The Fund's share price
increased from $16.93 to $17.74 over this period.
The Funds one-year total return was 10.21%, with 5.43% representing
distributions of income and 4.78% in capital change. The one-year total
return underperformed the unmanaged Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index's
return of 11.18%, due in large part to the Fund's conservative investment
approach to moderate share price volatility.
Q What has been the Fund's investment strategy?
A Over the past 12 months, the portfolio management team gradually shifted a
portion of the portfolio from long-term bonds with maturities of over 20
years to bonds with maturities under 15 years. As of September 30, 1995,
42% of the portfolio was invested in intermediate-term bonds maturing in 10
to 15 years. The reallocation added to the Fund's favorable performance
over the past few months, because bonds with maturities in the 15-year
range that were noncallable performed better than longer-term bonds that
were priced close to par.
In addition, as of September 30, 1995, 90% of the portfolio was invested in
insured securities (or securities escrowed in U.S. Treasurys which provide
the backing of the U.S. Government). Remember that this insurance protects
the bond from default but does not apply to the value of your shares or to
the yield of the Fund, both of which will fluctuate daily. Within the
portfolio, the largest sector of the Fund (22%) was in insured hospital
bonds, which we believe were undervalued bonds. As always, we invested in
securities rated within the top three ratings by Moody's Investors Services
Inc. and Standard & Poor's -- two independent rating services.
Q What should I expect from the Fund in the upcoming year?
A Over the longer term, we expect interest rates to remain relatively stable
or decline a bit. The revised positions of the portfolio will continue to
take advantage of this environment. Therefore, the Fund should provide
shareholders with high income free from federal taxes and will seek to keep
its share price more stable than that of a long-term municipal bond. We
believe that the municipal bond market will follow the trend of the taxable
bond market, with a positive long-term outlook.

Q How has the Fund performed?
A We believe the AARP Balanced Stock and Bond Fund performed well over the
past 12 months. The Fund's share price was $14.64 on September 30, 1994; it
increased to $16.40 on September 30, 1995. Its one-year total return was
16.80%, with 4.47% representing distributions of income and 12.33%
representing capital change. By comparison, the unmanaged Standard & Poor's
500 Stock Price Index and the unmanaged Lehman Brothers Aggregate Index
posted returns of 29.75% and 14.06%, respectively. (Please note that the
Fund was introduced on February 1, 1994. Therefore, five-year and ten-year
data are not available.) The Fund's performance, while strong, did not
match that of the blended index primarily because of the Fund's lack of
exposure to technology stocks (refer to the investment strategy of the AARP
Growth and Income Fund on page 27 for details on the outperformance of
technology stocks) and its underweighting in intermediate-term bonds -- the
best performing fixed-income group for most of 1995.
Q What has been the Fund's investment strategy?
A In general, the stock portion of the Fund (representing 55% of the
portfolio as of September 30, 1995) uses an approach similar to the AARP
Growth and Income Fund. The Fund will usually invest in stocks that are
believed to have favorable long-term capital appreciation outlooks and have
above-average dividend yields. Since the stock portion of the Fund is
managed by the same individuals and with the same strategy as the AARP
Growth and Income Fund, refer to the AARP Growth and Income Fund Report on
page 27 for details on specific stock selection. (The Fund may invest up to
70% of its assets in stocks.)
The portion of the Fund invested in bonds (representing 30% of the
portfolio as of September 30, 1995) can include corporate issues, U.S.
Government securities, mortgage-backed obligations, and other fixed-income
securities. At least 75% of these securities will be securities rated
within the three highest quality ratings (AAA, AA, A) by Moody's or
Standard & Poor's, independent rating organizations. (At all times, at
least 30% of the Fund's assets will be invested in a combination of bonds
and cash equivalents.) At the beginning of the fiscal period, the Fund
focused on bonds at the shorter and longer ends of the maturity spectrum.
Our strategy began to shift mid-year toward intermediate-term bonds.
Reallocating the portfolio to focus on intermediate-term bonds was in
anticipation of a steeper yield curve (short-term yields declining faster
than long-term yields) as the Federal Reserve Board moved to a more
accommodative policy of lower rates. The Fed demonstrated this intent by
lowering short-term interest rates in July.
24
<PAGE>
The remaining portion of the Fund's assets was invested in cash
equivalents.
Q What can I expect from the Fund in the upcoming year?
A For the remainder of 1995, we believe that our disciplined investment
approach should continue to provide exposure to the long-term benefits of a
diversified portfolio of stocks and bonds. The current asset allocation for
the Fund is 55% stocks, 30% bonds, and 15% cash equivalents. However, this
allocation may be gradually changed depending upon our expectations for the
financial markets. Since the AARP Balanced Stock and Bond Fund is invested
more heavily in stocks, we will concentrate on trends in the stock market
and how they may affect the Fund.

AARP Growth and Income Fund
At a Glance
Fund Overview
The AARP Growth and Income Fund is a conservatively managed stock fund that
provides the potential for long-term growth and quarterly income, while still
seeking to moderate risk. It invests in above-average dividend-yielding stocks
that may offer the opportunity for long-term growth of capital.
For Whom the Fund is Designed
The Fund is suitable for investors who are seeking long-term growth of their
assets and the opportunity to keep ahead of inflation. Investors should be able
to invest for the longer term (three to five years or more) and be comfortable

Q How has the Fund performed?
A We believe the AARP Growth and Income Fund performed well. The Fund's share
price was $34.13 on September 30, 1994; it increased to $38.36 on September
30, 1995. The Fund's one year total return was 20.43%, with 3.69%
representing distributions of income and 16.74% in capital change. Its
one-year total return underperformed the unmanaged Standard & Poor's 500
Stock Price Index return of 29.75%. This underperformance was due primarily
to our lack of exposure to the technology sector. (See investment strategy
section below.)
Q What has been the Fund's investment strategy?
A The AARP Growth and Income Fund has had a consistent investment strategy
since its inception. We continue to target stocks that have dividend yields
that are at least 20% above the average market yield at the time of
purchase. Our strict valuation discipline focuses our attention on those
companies whose fundamental outlooks may have been misperceived by
investors, as reflected by such stocks' higher than average relative
dividend yields. This strict discipline, which has contributed to the
Fund's long-term success, sometimes precludes us from investing in certain
sectors of the market.
Technology stocks -- the best performing sector of the market in 1995 (up
over 60% for the year ended September 30, 1995) -- are characterized by a
high degree of price volatility and minimal or nonexistent dividends. As
such, they do not fit into our investment universe. This sector represents
over 10% of the S&P 500 and has been the market leader for close to a year
and a half. History continually shows us that enthusiasm for a particular
group (such as technology) can last for a period of time, but eventually
all positive expectations get priced into the stocks and cause them to
underperform. This was the case for oil stocks in the 1970s, defense stocks
in the mid-1980s, and pharmaceutical stocks in the early 1990s. Our
discipline may cause us to miss some of the upswings, but it protects us
from the downturns. We often reevaluate these groups when the rest of the
market has given up on them and their prices are low.
During the last year, we continued to shift the portfolio from stocks that
are economically sensitive to those with more long-term consistent growth.
We favored the health, finance, manufacturing, and energy sectors. The
portfolio has benefited significantly from the dramatic outperformance of
its manufacturing and durable goods holdings as well as superior
performance from many of the financial holdings in the Fund. The
manufacturing and durable good sectors are overweighted in the portfolio
relative to the unmanaged S&P 500 Index. Aerospace stocks such as United
27
<PAGE>
Technologies and Lockheed Martin posted strong returns during the period,
as fears of recession subsided and earnings growth continued to rise.
United Technologies (now the Fund's top holding) also benefited from the
strengthening commercial aerospace recovery, which aided revenues and
operating income even more than expected.
The financial sector was the second best performing U.S stock market group
in the first half of this year, led by stocks such as Student Loan
Marketing Association (Sallie Mae) which is the Fund's second largest
holding. Sallie Mae posted superior returns during the period as support
waned for the controversial plan enabling direct student lending by the
federal government. In addition, Chemical Bank and First Bank have
benefited from continued cost cutting and consolidation in the banking
industry.
Convertibles were also used to enhance the total return of the Fund.
Convertibles are bonds or preferred stocks that can be exchanged at the
option of the investor into a specified number of shares of the issuing
company's common stock. As such, their prices are directly influenced by
the performance of the common stock. Because convertibles typically provide
higher income and have less fluctuation than their underlying stocks,
finding attractively priced convertibles is often difficult. We purchased a
convertible issued by Mitsubishi Bank toward the end of the fiscal period
which we believe offers much upside potential with a very attractive
downside protection feature.
The Fund's portfolio management team employs a disciplined process for
sales as well as purchases. If a stock's yield drops below 75% of the S&P
500's yield or if the fundamental outlook for the company has changed or if
the valuation is full (i.e., positive expectations are reflected into its
price) the holding is sold. This approach led to the elimination of Parker
Hannifin because of its yield and the reduction of Eli Lilly and Warner
Lambert as their prices are fairly valued. Proceeds from these sales were
used to purchase stocks that have, in our opinion, more attractive total
return prospects.
(Please note that portfolio changes should not be considered
recommendations for action by individual investors.)
Q What should I expect from the Fund in the upcoming year?
A For the remainder of 1995 and beyond, we believe that our disciplined
investment approach is an attractive way for investors to have exposure to
the long-term benefits of stocks. Our aim in managing the Fund is to
provide a positive total return when the stock market is rising, while
attempting to shield the portfolio when the stock market is declining. (In
1994, shielding the portfolio proved to be beneficial, and we were pleased
to have helped investors avoid many of the stock market's downturns.)
Though there may be some short-term volatility, we continue to believe that
stocks will outperform bonds and cash equivalents over the longer term.

mutual funds.
For Whom the Fund is Designed
The Fund is designed for investors seeking long-term growth of their principal.
Investors should be able to invest for the longer term (five years or more) and
be comfortable with the short-term fluctuation of their principal that is

Q How has the Fund performed?
A We believe the AARP Capital Growth Fund performed well over the past 12
months. The Fund's share price increased from $31.74 on September 30, 1994
to $38.36 on September 30, 1995. The Fund's one-year total return was
23.47% with .04% representing distributions of income and 23.43% in capital
change. Its one-year return underperformed the unmanaged Standard & Poor's
500 Stock Price Index return of 29.75% because, unlike most other growth
funds, the AARP Capital Growth Fund seeks to moderate share price
fluctuation and therefore may underperform the index when the stock market
strongly advances.
Q What has been the Fund's investment strategy?
A Over the past year, we began to shift to a more diversified, higher-quality
portfolio by increasing our position in the health, financial, and energy
sectors and reducing many of our holdings in the communications, gaming,
and media sectors. Specifically, we reduced our position in Time Warner,
Tele-Communications, and Viacom and eliminated our positions in Comcast,
LIN Broadcasting, and Rogers Communications.
We used the proceeds from the sale of such securities to purchase stocks
within the health, financial, and energy sectors. We anticipate attractive
earnings growth in stocks such as Franklin Resources, Merck, and American
International Group. We also purchased Capital Cities, Philips Electronics,
and Hewlett-Packard. Many of these purchases were made early in the year,
and we have already seen considerable appreciation. Capital Cities, for
example, has benefited from the announcement of the proposed Capital Cities
and Disney merger. (We also owned Disney, which appreciated as a result of
the proposed merger.)
In addition, the portfolio has benefited significantly from the dramatic
outperformance of most of its technology stocks such as Compaq Computer,
Hewlett-Packard (the Fund's second largest holding), Intel, and Texas
Instruments. Technology stocks were up over 60% for the year ended
September 30, 1995. As of September 30, 1995, approximately 15% of the
portfolio was invested in technology stocks. It is important to note that
this 15% allocation is significantly lower than the average for most other
growth stock funds. Since technology stocks are characterized by a high
degree of share price volatility, large investments in this sector would
not meet our investment criteria.
(Please note that portfolio changes should not be considered
recommendations for action by individual investors.)

<PAGE>
Q What can I expect from the Fund in the upcoming year?
A Despite some inevitable short-term volatility, we believe that the AARP
Capital Growth Fund's strategy of high-quality and diversification may
provide investors with the opportunity for long-term growth with less risk
-- in terms of share price fluctuation -- than other more aggressive growth
funds.

* Floating rate demand notes are securities whose interest rates vary with a
designated market index or market rate, such as the coupon-equivalent of the
U.S. Treasury bill rate. Variable rate demand notes are securities whose
interest rates are reset periodically at levels that are generally
comparable to tax-exempt commercial paper. These securities are payable on
demand within seven calendar days and normally incorporate an irrevocable
letter of credit or line of credit from a major bank. Since these securities
are payable on demand, they are valued at 100% of their principal.
(a) At September 30, 1995, the net unrealized depreciation on investments based
on cost for federal income tax purposes of $118,990,915 was as follows:

* Floating rate demand notes are securities whose interest rates vary with a
designated market index or market rate, such as the coupon-equivalent of
the U.S. Treasury bill rate. Variable rate demand notes are securities
whose interest rates are reset periodically at levels that are generally
comparable to tax-exempt commercial paper. These securities are payable on
demand within seven calendar days and normally incorporate an irrevocable
letter of credit or line of credit from a major bank. Since these
securities are payable on demand, they are valued at 100% of their
principal.
** ETM: Bonds bearing the description ETM (escrowed to maturity) are
collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities which are held in escrow by a
trustee and used to pay principal and interest on bonds so designated.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
The AARP Cash Investment Funds, consisting of the AARP High Quality Money
Fund, the AARP Income Trust, consisting of the AARP GNMA and U.S. Treasury Fund
and the AARP High Quality Bond Fund, the AARP Tax Free Income Trust, consisting
of the AARP High Quality Tax Free Money Fund, (formerly AARP Insured Tax Free
Short Term Fund), and the AARP Insured Tax Free General Bond Fund, and the AARP
Growth Trust, consisting of the AARP Balanced Stock and Bond Fund, AARP Growth
and Income Fund, and the AARP Capital Growth Fund are each Massachusetts
business trusts and are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as open-end management investment companies. All funds are diversified.
The AARP Cash Investment Funds, has one series, the AARP Growth Trust has three
series and each of the other Trusts have two series. The Declaration of Trust of
each Trust permits its Trustees to create an unlimited number of series and to
issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of each separate series.
The policies described below are followed consistently by the funds in
preparation of their financial statements and are in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
A. SECURITY VALUATION. The AARP High Quality Money Fund uses the penny
rounding method of security valuation as permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940. Under this method, securities for which market
quotations are readily available and which have remaining maturities of
sixty-one days or more from the date of valuation are valued at the mean between
the over-the-counter bid and asked prices by an independent registered
broker/dealer. On the sixtieth day prior to maturity and thereafter until
maturity, securities originally purchased with more than sixty days remaining to
maturity are valued at amortized cost calculated daily, based upon the market
valuation of the securities on the sixty-first day prior to maturity. The AARP
High Quality Tax Free Money Fund uses the amortized cost method of security
valuation as permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Under this method, the value of a security is determined by adjusting its
original cost to face value through the amortization of any acquisition discount
or premium at a constant rate until maturity, which approximates market.
Security valuation with respect to each of the remaining funds is performed in
the following manner:
Common and preferred stocks traded on national securities exchanges are
valued at the most recent sale price on such exchange where the security is
principally traded. If no sale occurred, the security is valued at the mean
between the most recent bid and asked quotations on such exchanges. If there is
no such bid and asked quotations the most recent bid quotation is used. Unlisted
securities quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automatic
Quotation ("NASDAQ") System, for which there have been sales, are valued at the
most recent sale price reported on such system. If there are no such sales, the
value is the high or "inside" bid quotation. Unlisted securities which are not
quoted on the NASDAQ System but are traded in another over-the-counter market
are valued at the most recent sale price on such market. If no sale occurred,
the security is valued at the mean between the most recent bid and asked
quotations. If there are no such bid and asked quotations the most recent bid
quotation is used.
Portfolio debt securities with remaining maturities greater than sixty days
are valued by pricing agents approved by the Trustees, which prices reflect
broker/dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques. If
the pricing agents are unable to provide such quotations, the most recent bid
quotation supplied by a bona fide market maker shall be used.
Short-term investments with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are
valued at amortized cost. Variable rate demand notes are carried at cost which
together with accrued interest approximates market.
The value of all other securities is determined in good faith under the
direction of the Trustees.
B. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The AARP High Quality Money Fund, AARP Growth
Funds and AARP GNMA and U.S. Treasury Fund regularly invest in repurchase
agreements. Each of the AARP funds may enter into repurchase agreements with
selected banks and broker/dealers whereby each fund, through its custodian,
receives delivery of the securities collateralizing repurchase
86
<PAGE>
agreements, the amount of which at the time of purchase and each subsequent
business day is required to be maintained at such a level that the market value,
depending on the maturity of the underlying collateral, is equal to at least
101% of the resale price.
C. FUTURES CONTRACTS. Each of the funds in the AARP Income Trust, the AARP
Insured Tax Free General Bond Fund and the AARP Balanced Stock and Bond Fund may
enter into futures contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between a buyer
or seller and an established futures exchange or its clearinghouse in which the
buyer or seller agrees to take or make a delivery of a specific amount of an
item at a specified price on a specific date (settlement date). During the
period the AARP Balanced Stock and Bond Fund purchased interest rate futures as
a temporary substitute for purchasing selected investments. Also, during the
period the AARP Insured Tax Free General Bond Fund sold interest rate securities
futures to hedge against declines in the value of portfolio securities.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with
a financial intermediary an amount ("initial margin") equal to a certain
percentage of the face value indicated in the futures contract. Subsequent
payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund each day,
dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security, and
are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by
the Fund. When entering into a closing transaction, the Fund will realize a gain
or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract to
sell and the futures contract to buy. Futures contracts are valued at the most
recent settlement price.
Certain risks may arise upon entering into futures contracts including the
risk that an illiquid secondary market will limit the Fund's ability to close
out a futures contract prior to the settlement date and that a change in the
value of a futures contract may not correlate exactly with changes in the value
of the securities or currencies hedged. When utilizing futures contracts to
hedge, the Fund gives up the opportunity to profit from favorable price
movements in the hedged positions during the term of the contract.
D. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS. Each of the funds in the
AARP Growth Trust, in connection with portfolio purchases and sales of
securities denominated in a foreign currency, may enter into forward foreign
currency exchange contracts ("forward contracts"). Additionally, from time to
time, each fund may enter into contracts to hedge certain foreign currency
denominated assets. A forward contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a
foreign currency at the settlement date at a negotiated rate. During the period,
the Fund utilized forward contracts as a hedge against changes in exchange rates
relating to foreign currency denominated assets.
Forward contracts are valued at the prevailing forward exchange rate of the
underlying currencies and unrealized gain/loss is recorded daily. Forward
contracts having the same settlement date and broker are offset and any gain
(loss) is realized on the date of offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is realized on
settlement date. Realized and unrealized gains and losses which represent the
difference between the value of the forward contract to buy and the forward
contract to sell are included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) from
foreign currency related transactions.
Certain risks may arise upon entering into forward contracts from the
potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
Additionally, when utilizing forward contracts to hedge, the Fund gives up the
opportunity to profit from favorable exchange rate movements during the term of
the contract.
E. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS. Foreign currency transactions from
foreign investment activity are translated into U.S. dollars on the following
basis:
(i) market value of investment securities, other assets and
liabilities at the daily rates of exchange, and
(ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and
interest income and certain expenses at the rates of exchange
prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
The Funds do not isolate that portion of gains and losses on investments
which is due to changes in foreign exchange rates from that which is due to
changes in market prices of the investments. Such fluctuations are included with
the net realized and unrealized gains and losses from investments.
87
<PAGE>
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) from foreign currency related
transactions includes gains and losses between trade and settlement dates on
securities transactions, gains and losses arising from the sales of foreign
currency, and gains and losses between the ex and payment dates on dividends,
interest, and foreign withholding taxes.
F. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME. Securities
transactions are accounted for on the trade date basis and dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual
basis. Original issue discount on securities purchased is accreted on an
effective yield basis over the life of the security. Acquisition discount is
accreted on taxable securities purchased with original maturity dates of one
year or less. Premium on securities purchased by the AARP Tax Free Income Trust
is amortized on an effective yield basis over the life of the security.
Each fund uses the specific identification method for determining the
realized gain or loss on investments sold for both financial and federal income
tax reporting purposes.
G. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. Each of the funds is treated as a single entity
for federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of each fund to comply with
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code as amended which are applicable to
regulated investment companies, and to distribute all of its taxable and tax
exempt income to its shareholders. Accordingly, the funds paid no U.S. federal
income taxes, and no provisions for federal income taxes were required.
H. DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME AND GAINS. All of the net investment income of
each fund is declared as a dividend to shareholders. The dividends from AARP
High Quality Money Fund and each of the funds in the AARP Income Trust and the
AARP Tax Free Income Trust are declared daily and distributed monthly. The
dividends from AARP Balanced Stock and Bond Fund and AARP Growth and Income Fund
are declared and paid quarterly. The dividends from AARP Capital Growth Fund are
declared and paid annually. During any particular year, net realized gains from
securities transactions for each fund which are in excess of any available
capital loss carryforwards, would be taxable to the fund if not distributed and,
therefore, will be distributed to shareholders in the following fiscal year. The
AARP High Quality Money Fund takes into account realized gains and losses on the
sales of securities held less than one year in its daily distributions. An
additional distribution may be made by each fund to the extent necessary to
avoid the payment of a four percent federal excise tax.
The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gains
distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal income tax
rules and regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences relate primarily to investments in options,
futures, forward contracts, foreign denominated investments, mortgage backed
securities, REITs and certain securities sold at a loss. As a result, net
investment income and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a
reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period.
Accordingly, the Fund may periodically make reclassifications among certain of
its capital accounts without impacting the net asset value of the Fund.
I. EXPENSES. Each fund is charged for those expenses that are directly
attributable to it, such as management, custodian, audit, and certain
shareholder service fees. Expenses that are not directly attributable to a fund,
such as reports to shareholders, portions of Trustees' and legal fees, are
allocated among all the funds.
J. ORGANIZATION COST. Costs incurred by the AARP Balanced Stock and Bond
Fund in connection with its organization and initial registration of shares have
been deferred and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a five-year
period.
K. PORTFOLIO INSURANCE. The cost of premiums paid by the AARP Insured Tax
Free General Bond Fund for insurance, which covers individual securities, is
non-cancellable and runs the life of such securities, is added to the cost basis
of such securities. This insurance provides for the timely payment of principal
and interest on these securities when due and protects the fund against loss
from default by the Municipal issuer. It does not protect the investor from
losses due to changes in market values.
88
<PAGE>
L. SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A FORWARD DELIVERY OR WHEN-ISSUED BASIS. The
AARP High Quality Money Fund, each of the funds in the AARP Income Trust and
AARP Tax Free Income Trust, and AARP Balanced Stock and Bond Fund may purchase
securities on a forward delivery or when-issued basis. Municipal, corporate and
government securities are frequently offered on a forward delivery or
when-issued basis. At the time the fund makes the commitment to purchase a
security on a forward delivery or when-issued basis, the price of the underlying
security is fixed. The fund will record the transaction at the time of the
commitment and reflect the value of the security in determining its net asset
value. The settlement date of the transaction can occur within one month or more
after the date the commitment was made. During the period between purchase and
settlement date, no payment is made on behalf of the fund and no interest
accrues to the fund.
NOTE 2. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
Under the investment management and advisory agreement (the "Management
Agreement") between each Trust and Scudder, Stevens & Clark, Inc. (the "Fund
Manager") the management fee consists of two elements: a Base Fee and an
Individual Fund Fee. The Base Fee is calculated as a percentage of the combined
net assets of all of the AARP Funds ("Program Assets"). Each AARP Fund pays, as
its portion of the Base Fee, an amount equal to the ratio of its daily net
assets to the daily net assets of all of the AARP Funds. The Annual Base Fee is
calculated as follows: .35%, of the first $2.0 billion of such assets, .33% of
the next $2.0 billion of such assets, .30% of the next $2.0 billion of such
assets, .28% of the next $2.0 billion of such assets, .26% of the next $3.0
billion of such assets, .25% of the next $3.0 billion of such assets, .24% of
such assets in excess of $14.0 billion.
In addition to the Base Fee Rate, each Fund agrees to pay the Fund Manager
a flat Individual Fund Fee based on the average daily net assets of that Fund.
The Individual Fund Fee Rate recognizes the different characteristics of each
Fund, the varying levels of complexity of investment research and securities
trading required to manage each Fund. The Individual Fund Fee Rate is calculated
at the following percentages of the average daily net assets of each fund: .10%
for AARP High Quality Money Fund and AARP High Quality Tax Free Money Fund; .12%
for AARP GNMA and U.S. Treasury Fund; .19% for AARP High Quality Bond Fund, AARP
Insured Tax Free General Bond Fund, AARP Balanced Stock and Bond Fund and AARP
Growth and Income Fund; .32% for AARP Capital Growth Fund. The amount for each
fund is shown in the Statement of Operations as Management Fee.
As manager of the assets of each Fund, the Fund Manager directs the
investments of each Fund in accordance with its investment objectives, policies
and restrictions. In addition to portfolio management services, the Fund Manager
under the Management Agreement will provide certain administrative services in
accordance with such Agreement. The Fund Manager has also entered into a Member
Services Agreement with AARP Financial Services Corp. ("AFSC"), a subsidiary of
AARP, and pays portions of its investment management and advisory fee to AFSC.
The Management Agreement also provides that the Fund Manager will reimburse
the funds for annual expenses in excess of the lowest state limitations imposed,
exclusive of taxes, brokerage commissions, interest and extraordinary expenses.
The Fund Manager agreed to maintain the annualized expenses of the AARP High
Quality Tax Free Money Fund at not more than 0.90% of average daily net assets
until February 1, 1996. The amount of expenses reimbursed by the Fund Manager,
if any, for each fund has been shown in the Statement of Operations as
Reimbursement of expenses from Fund Manager.
Each Trust has a shareholder servicing agreement with Scudder Service
Corporation ("SSC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scudder. As shareholder
servicing agent, SSC provides various transfer agent, dividend disbursing, and
shareholder communication functions. The amount for each fund has been shown in
the Statement of Operations as Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Expense.
Effective September 5, 1995, Scudder Fund Accounting Corporation ("SFAC"),
a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund Manager, assumed responsibility for
determining the daily net asset value per share and maintaining the portfolio
and general accounting
89
<PAGE>
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
records of AARP Growth and Income Fund and AARP Capital Growth Fund. For the
year ended September 30, 1995, the amount charged to the Funds by SFAC
aggregated $17,156 and $7,125, respectively, of which all was paid at September
30, 1995.
Each fund pays each Trustee not affiliated with Scudder or AARP $2,000
annually, $270 for each Trustees' meeting, $200 for each audit committee meeting
attended, and $100 for other committee meetings, plus expenses, subject to
certain maximums per Trustee for meetings held jointly with other funds. The
amount for each fund has been shown in the Statement of Operations as Trustees'
fees and expenses.
NOTE 3. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS

into the following forward foreign currency exchange contracts resulting in
net unrealized appreciation of $159,340.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT
ACCOUNTANTS
November 7, 1995
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
AARP Cash Investment Funds, AARP Income Trust,
AARP Tax Free Income Trust and
AARP Growth Trust
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the shares, principal amount, and value of the securities in the
lists of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes
in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial positions of AARP Cash Investment Funds, AARP Income
Trust, AARP Tax Free Income Trust, and AARP Growth Trust, which are comprised
of the eight AARP Funds listed in Note 1 to the financial statements, at
September 30, 1995 and the results of their operations, the changes in their net
assets, and their financial highlights for each of the periods indicated in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial
statements and the financial highlights (thereafter referred to as "financial
statements") are the responsibility of the Trusts' management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financials statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits on these financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and
perform the audits to obtain a reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of
securities owned at September 30, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian and
brokers and the application of alterative auditing procedures where
confirmations from brokers were not received, provide a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.
